I very much agree with Lucky Albatross and like the idea of someting denoting mutuality.  There was no formality about the presentation but I made someone who was (Arguably, is) Mine a custom sterling necklace one year as a Christmas present and I made myself a matching bracelet. 
I have seen others engage in practices that I believe are an acknowledgment of their commitment to the one they have collared via wearing keys and such and have complimented the symbology. 
Mutuality is important to me.  I enjoy the idea of things that symbolize that.

It seems like one of those "per situation" topics, really.

Collars are seen as a symbol, just like a white wedding dress, or a rainbow flag, or the red cross. People en masse will always think of them in a generic submissive term. How you use it, however, is highly personalized. (insert snowflake reference here)

To the person who says they switch based on mood, it made me giggle, cause I could imagine a grumpy, pajama-clad person shuffling up to their partner, collar in hand, with a half-mopey, half-hopeful look, and holding it out to them.

I see collars in two fold. There are the ones strictly kept in the bedroom, and only worn during or around activities (or maybe around the house), and then there are the formal ones, worn constantly, save perhaps for work or outings with people not involved in the lifestyle.

Having both partner wear a collar at the same time is either for play, or a fashion statement. Unless you prefer collars to rings, that is.

T.E.

I and My Brandi, as with most (if not all), who posted here, are Switches.  But, and I tend to believe this is true for any Switch/switch relationship, I am a Dominant/Switch, She is a submissive/Switch.  For the most part, I take the Dominant Role in the day-to-day functions within O/our Relationship.  But this does not preclude Her making a Decision that is actually far better for U/us than one I would make.  I'm not perfect, either as an individual or a Dominant.  But there are days when I just want to give up that control.  I am the Dominant in a Household with 3 Adult Females (My 30+ Daughter and her two roommates) and four kids (no, there is no sexual undertones or components of this at all), as well as being the Dominant in Mine and Brandis Relationship.  She also has Her Dominant Responsibilities to her slaves.  And it gets very difficult at times.  So having someone that is willing to "take the reins" on occasion, is a refreshing change.
 
As for SleepyDoms responses here, well, I and My Brandi are all too familiar with this sort of response.  Neither of U/us respond to it anymore.  But when someone expresses genuine interest, or at least, attempts to understand, W/we're more than willing to discuss it with them.
 
As for "Mutual Collaring", She has her neck collar, I have My scrotum collar, and W/we have one leash, depending on W/who's in Dominant Role.  As for a visible symbol, well, THAT is more insubstantial, since it depends on how observant a person is.  O/our "Mutual Collar" that the world in general sees is the Respect, Honesty, and Devotion that W/we exhibit for all to see.
